Maybe somebody could have a look at what's wrong with this code? runs
ok, but I don't get the indicator adjusted
remember that:
> Trying to build an indicator along the following lines:
> if price at bar satisfies condition Cond1 then Indicator = 1
> UNLESS the price did NOT satisfy Cond2 from last time Indicator was 1
> AND Close was == Close at bar, in which case Indicator = 0
Indicator = IIf(Cond1, 1, 0); // first just check Cond1 on all history
//adjust for Cond2
for (i= 1; i < BarCount; i++) {
if ( Cond1[i] )
for (k=i-1; k > 0 ; k--) { // looking at the past of bar i
if ( Close[k] == Close[i] AND Cond1[k] ) { Indicator[i] = 0; j
= 0;} // adjust bar i, exit loop
if ( Cond2[k] ) k = 0; // Cond 2 met, exit loop
}
}
